Sometimes a fan is always positive about what their favorite team does, but they forget that the competition in the EPL is not easy. Many players have high quality talent but after joining several teams in the EPL, they don't seem to give impressive performances.
And regarding Amorim who wants to bring in Gyokeres, I think he has experience in one of the EPL teams so he knows what he has to do. The problem is Amorim has to release 1 player to make room for Gyokeres.
But I just have a little concern if the coach makes a lot of changes, I'm afraid it will take a long time to get a stronger performance because it takes time to adapt.

It's a gambling i guess.

It's the same story when Manchester United signed Hojlund and Zirkzee from Serie a. I remember how big the euphoria of Manchester United fans when those strikers came. They even said Hojlund was better than Haaland. Now, those players are performing badly.

They should focus on developing their own strikers. It's better than trying to bring in a new striker to Old Trafford. I'm only worrying that if Gyokeres will be ended like Hojlund or Zirkzee. If they wanna bring Gyokeres to the club, they must off load one of their striker now.

I think Napoli can not get 120 million for Osimhen and the real price that Galatasaray is ready to pay is 50 million considering not the easiest character of Osimhen, but because of Osimhen's good game, his transfer value is growing and by the summer may reach 75 million, so Galatasaray will not be easy to keep him.
I think Galatasaray have not had such expensive transfers before and even if Osimhen wants to stay in the Turkish league, Napoli probably won't want to loan him out for a second season and will try to sell him to a place where they will pay more for him, and that is the Saudi league. 

What I have read is that he'll be with Sporting until the end of the season and has no such plans to move to Manchester United during tue January transfer window. Sporting Lisbon has already placed a price on him and we don't know if his price and valuation will go higher. I'm not sure Manchester United would want to sign stupidly, I'm no fan of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee too sluggish for the Premier league.  Hopefully he will be brought in.

Just over a year ago, striker Viktor Gyokeres was valued at €13m by Transfermarkt, when he was playing for Coventry City. Gyokeres is now valued at €70m. Gyokeres is in impressive form for Sporting CP. His strength, pace, and top-class goalscoring ability are qualities that Man Utd desperately needs. This is considered a very reasonable price given his current form. Gyokeres is scoring better than Erling Haaland and Harry Kane. He has scored 16 goals in 11 matches in the Portuguese National Championship. Very impressive numbers.

I know the Portuguese National Championship and the Premier League are two completely different leagues. The Premier League is not a place where players can easily convert opportunities into goals. But Man Utd should take a gamble on Viktor Gyokeres if they want a great striker. No one can predict anything. I give an example right now even a Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid is struggling to score goals, we should not expect too much from Viktor Gyokeres. The team has to bet.

Gyokeres not only perform for 2 seasons, he also perform in Coventry City for 2 seasons too which make him have perform for 4 seasons. 70 Million Euros is cheap to have a player with such great performance.

There are many bad players who're not have the same skills like Gyokeres but have high market value e.g. Anthony Gordon 65M, Bruno Guimaraes 80M etc.

Rather than spend such high to buy Endrick, better to buy Gyokeres.

I see it as a disrespect to keep linking Victor Osimhen to the Saudi Arabia League. Maybe he could consider it because of the money, who knows but which striker at his level is playing in the Gulf league? Connecting such a quality and firebrand striker to SPL is degrading. With is level of performance currently he would be highly sought by top clubs immediately his loan deal runs up. He would have even moved this January but had committed himself to Galastataray till the end of the season because of the love the club showed him and his family. The Nigerian is a future candidate for the Ballon d'Or  and the SPL will bury his ambition to win it someday.

Aston Villa would be the most appropriate club choice, because in the last 2 seasons Aston Villa has been able to develop rapidly and at least this club is preparing something big in the Premier League. Pogba can contribute and I am sure his presence will provide a plus value to inject Aston Villa to its best level. However there is one thing that Pogba must put aside, namely his salary no club will give such a large value for a player who has been absent for a long time.

even though osimehn is loved at Galatasaray, the possibility of him staying back after the completion of the season is very slim because of his released clause that Napoli placed on him. it might be an intentional decision made by Napoli to make it difficult for an average club to buy osimehn and honestly, it's not going too well for osimehn considering that he's not ready to move to the Saudi pro league but is currently left with no option than going to the league since they are the only league that can afford such amount on him.

with Neymar injury bringing the conversation of looking out for a replacement, osimehn could be that replacement but however, teams in the premier league like arsenal that are currently without a standing attacker would have happily jumped at him if not for the issue of his expensive release clause. the season is far from a close and for now, osimehn is a full-time player at Galatasaray. with the main attacker of Galatasaray out of the season due to injury, what's at hand is for him to lead the team to victory which will go on to prove that he's one of the best attackers in the world. his ability to do that will even influence his next stop in his career.

Currently Pogba status is as a player free agent, he can choose any club that is interested in him. Previously, there was an issue circulating that Pogba would train at Manchester United's Carrington, but according to the latest information from Fabrizio Romano, the news is not true. Several clubs have begun to show interest in bringing him in, but so far no agreement has been reached. In my opinion, he should consider the offer from Aston Villa because the club is starting to give competition for the top four, so the possibility of playing in the UCL is very big.

Paul Pogba is currently certainly waiting for offers from clubs in the European league before he decides to leave European football, amidst rumors circulating that Al Nassr and Inter Miami are interested in this player, I heard that there are English league clubs interested in him, although they are not the top clubs that we expect because the clubs that are associated are Aston Villa, Bournemouth and West Ham. He will be a free transfer so he just has to choose where he will go, in my opinion it is better to continue his career in the European league than to leave the European league.

Is there any fixed news about where Victor Gyokeres is going?
If I read the news today he was linked with MU because his former coach at the sporting has moved to MU.
Most likely he will brought there as well to enhance MU performance. but it looks like not for this session because The sporting official confirmed will release him on next summer.

I think this is a strategy to increase the value. MU must calculate it carefully if they won't the same thing to happen again (Antony). Yes I know, Victor Gyokeres really shines from a previous session, He has even defeated Haaland from this session, but I think it's too brave if MU spends more money (+70 M euros) if only look at his performance in 2 sessions.

If we talk about the last summer transfer window, it seems that the rumors that wanted Osimhen's services were not just rumors. Several big clubs reportedly wanted his services, plus it was reported by several well-known newspapers and journalists, although in the end this Nigerian international striker was loaned to Galatasaray. Regardless of all that, I am sure Osimhen wants to return to compete with the elite top European clubs. It does not mean that Galatasaray is not a top team in its league, but as a young player, he certainly has ambitions and missions like strikers who play on the European stage. In addition, I doubt that Galatasaray is willing to patent Osimhen with the transfer value that Napoli wants. Even so, it is possible that one of the elite clubs in the Turkish League is considering patenting Osimhen next season. That is, if Osimhem is willing. Regardless of all that, I agree with you that this Nigerian international striker would prefer to focus rather than think about the team he will go to later. because, if Osimhen really wants it, first he must be consistent and impressive with Galatasaray until his loan contract ends. The Domestic League is the target they are aiming for, maybe Galatasaray is also aiming for the Europa League trophy. maybe the club's hope, with Osimhen Galatasaray can make it happen.

In fact, Napoli seems to be making it difficult to release Osimhen, this is the same as what happened in the past with Mbappe and PSG but in the end PSG lost Mbappe without getting anything because he left after his contract expired and I think maybe Osimhen will also experience the same thing.
Regarding the transfer price and salary, it does make some team reluctant to pursue Osimhen from Napoli, this is condition that makes it difficult for Napoli to reach sales agreement with other team, Napoli has lowered the price but it is still large amount and almost all team are unable to meet it even though they have great interest in Osimhen, in my opinion Napoli is indeed too excessive about their demands.

He is currently having a great time with Galatasaray but has been rumoured to leave them during the January transfer window. When asked by a fan, he said he was going to stay with them for thr full season. I feel like he is the most complete player for that Chelsea sqaud and not Nicholas Jackson. Arsenal fans are also hungry to see him join them but most accurate for them would be Alexander isak from Newcastle United.

Come on guys, it's time we stop linking osimhen with the current Saudi Arabian team, because indeed he is not interested at all in joining the Saudi Arabian team team, even he was in the transfer market last summer he refused to join Al Ahli and chose Galatasaray altough with loan status despite the fact that the agreement to move to Al Ahli permanently was almost completed because Napoli has agreed from Al Ahli big offer, then how can we again link osimhen with the current Arab club if he has previously rejected a fantastic offer from Al Ahli?

So in the end Al Ahli recruited Ivan Toney from Brentford as an alternative striker after the failure to get osimhen.

Victor Osimhen is still focused on his loan time with Galatasaray and perhaps the rumours of him moving on can only be realized if Napoli are willing to let him go.
Otherwise he will have to wait until his contract expires so that he can be free and Galatasaray can make a permanent purchase if they want Victor Osimhen to stay.
Honestly I would like to see him play in a much better League but there is too much drama surrounding his transfer market and maybe the salary issue that makes some clubs reluctant to make a bid to buy him.

The only things capable enough to stop this guy from performing well is injury and I don't see him as an injury prone player. if Galatasaray can afford his services I don't think is a bad idea for them not to try to convince him to stay permanently after all he has been doing well and base on scoring he has surpass Lukaku many have been saying will get more goals than him (Osimhen) and it seems they wanted to use the Belgium attacker to rub it on V Osimhen's face since they, that's Napoli don't want him. I'd prefer the Nigeria international to stay out at Galatasaray till the end of the season and decide if he wants to continue with the club or go elsewhere.

*lol is this for real? How stubborn Napoli is to keep selling Osimhen for 120 millions? It's very obvious Galatasaray will never buy him out. This is caused by their limit to buy Osimhen only if Napoli lets him go for 50 millions. it's likely Osimhen's going to Saudi soon. I remember he also asked Napoli to decrease his release clause from 130 million to 75 millions. I dunno whether Napoli accepted his request or rejected it.

The only Saudi club that can waste $120 million on him. Napoli has no choice but to send him to the Saudi Pro League. What a comedy.

Most of these transfer reports are just mere rumours that can't be confirmed from any reliable source. Victor Osimhen is currently on a loan deal at Galatasaray which is expected to run through out the season but whether he'll sign a permanent deal with the Turkish club at the end of his loan deal is still uncertain. There are several rumors surrounding the Nigeria striker's future but I believe everything will be sorted out by next summer and his next destination will be officially made known but for now, he's more focused in helping Galatasaray win s many trophies as possible this season
